LEBANON, N.H. —
Vermont Lt. Gov. Barbara Snelling’s condition was upgraded to serious Monday after doctors repaired a blood vessel that ruptured in her brain during a stroke over the weekend.

Snelling, 68, had been running for governor, a post her late husband once held. She suffered a brain hemorrhage Saturday at a meeting of state Republicans.
